Inspired by Iwo Jima, this release honors the full scope of the Pacific Campaign. Built to Field Watch standards, it features authentic Iwo Jima sand, a campaign map dial, and American-powered timekeeping.








Created for the 80th Anniversary of the Battle of Iwo Jima, this watch pairs authentic volcanic sand with a battle-map dial tracing the five-week conflict, powered by a reliable American movement and inspired by WWII field watches.
The Battle of Iwo Jima stands as a lasting symbol of courage under fire, and this execution tells that story through material alone. Stripped of markings and maps, the dial features only authentic Iwo Jima volcanic sand, allowing the history to speak without interpretation. Built to our Field Watch standards and powered by an American movement, this edition offers a quieter, more restrained tribute to those who served.





Each dial contains authentic black volcanic sand from Iwo Jima, collected during a ceremonial visit and sealed beneath a protective layer as a permanent link to the battlefield. A Pacific Theater map traces the campaign across the ocean, marking key islands including Guadalcanal, Saipan, Peleliu, Iwo Jima, and Okinawa, each a landing and each a sacrifice. Dedicated to the Pacific Campaign, this watch honors the men who served across multiple islands and years of sustained combat, carrying that history forward on the wrist.
